Professional Network Cabling Across Southern Idaho
Bad cabling is the silent killer of network performance. Total Techs designs and installs structured cabling, fiber optic runs, and wireless infrastructure for businesses across the Magic Valley — done right the first time, so you’re not pulling cables out of the ceiling five years later.
The Cabling Everything Else Depends On
Cameras, phones, computers, access control, point-of-sale — every connected device in your business relies on the cabling behind the walls. Bad cabling means flaky connections, slow speeds, intermittent outages, and equipment that mysteriously stops working.
Good cabling is invisible. It just works, year after year, no surprises. That’s what we install — professionally pulled, properly terminated, certified to spec, neatly organized in clean network racks. Cabling you can build a business on.
We handle commercial cabling projects from single-office build-outs to multi-floor commercial buildings to multi-building campuses with fiber between them. Cat6, Cat6A, fiber optic, and outdoor cabling — all done to professional standards across Twin Falls, Jerome, Burley, Rupert, Gooding, Buhl, and the Magic Valley.

The Difference Between ‘Working’ and ‘Working Right’
Plenty of cabling will get you a link light. Quality cabling will deliver full speed, reliable PoE for your cameras and phones, and 25+ years of service without degradation.
We see the result of poor cabling work constantly: businesses spending money on faster internet that they can’t actually use because their internal cabling is the bottleneck. Cameras that randomly drop. Phone systems that have static. Workstations that can never quite reach the speed they’re supposed to. Almost always traced back to the cables.

Common Network Cabling Questions
QWhat’s the difference between Cat6 and Cat6A?
Cat6 supports 1 Gbps over 100 meters and 10 Gbps over shorter distances. Cat6A supports 10 Gbps to the full 100 meters and has better shielding against interference. For most small business networks, Cat6 is sufficient. For high-bandwidth applications, longer runs, or future-proofing 5+ years out, Cat6A is the right choice.
QShould we use copper or fiber?
Copper (Cat6/6A) for most building-internal runs under 300 feet — easier to terminate, cheaper hardware. Fiber for building-to-building, longer runs, environments with electromagnetic interference, or where you need 10+ Gbps speeds. Many businesses use both — fiber backbone between floors/buildings, copper to the desk.
QDo you install during business hours?
We work around your schedule. Most cabling installs can be done during business hours with minimal disruption (we’re typically working in ceiling space or wiring closets). For high-disruption work — major rewiring, server room reorganization — we schedule evenings or weekends.
QWhat about office moves or build-outs?
Office build-outs and moves are major cabling opportunities. We work with general contractors to install cabling during construction (much cheaper than retrofitting). For office moves, we can pre-cable the new space so you can move in seamlessly.
QDo you do residential cabling?
For custom homes and high-end residential projects, yes — typically as part of smart home installations. For basic residential network drops, we focus on commercial work, but we can refer you to other installers if it’s a small residential job.
